NEX : boss practice mode+ real kills. Sun Mar 15th 9 pm GMT
Perfect for first-timers!! First runs in new boss practice mode where you don´t have to be bothered by dieing because you spawn right were you started
Followed by real kills with awesome loot!
For those who have never been:
***IMPORTANT***
Make sure you have your frozen key ready for the event start. You have to kill minions inside their respective strongholds (they won't drop key parts in the middle).
Also, make sure to buy full Ceremonial Robes to avoid needing a KC to get in. This set contains:
- Ancient Ceremonial Mask
- Ancient Ceremonial Top
- Ancient Ceremonial Legs
- Ancient Ceremonial Boots
- Ancient Ceremonial Gloves
You do NOT need to bring your gear for the kill, as there is a bank right outside her room, but make sure to bring food because you will be attacked by minions on your way, unless you wear the Shard of Zaros
Please note that you can bring any style you want, but you need a weapon switch. If you bring Melee for instance, make sure to also bring either a mage weapon / basic gear, or ranged depending on your preference. I highly suggest to bring Range / Mage to make phases easier. The reason for the switch is that she uses a deflect curse at some points, and the kind changes each kill.
If you feel confident enough you could also bring correspondending armour ( i.e. at least top and legs for switch)

A few helping tips before the event:
1) Turn your audio on ( RS sounds). It helps to understand when the special attacks come and also when you need to rush to kill the minions ( she yells ). Of course you also see it on the screen but from my personal experience I can tell it´s very easy to miss when you´re panic-eating , trying to find correct prayer and switching the weapon and what not.
2) Remember where your " escape" and freedom abilities are. Escape you will need to use really quick, no time to think and search for it.
3 ) Blood phase is tricky.. don´t use bleeding abilities because they heal Nex.
First, when blood phase starts, there is a 5-7 sec time frame when Nex glows and yells about siphoning ( Siphon will solve this). Do not attack her during that. Each attack will heal her instead of damaging. Be ready for " red" attack.. when you turn red , use quickly " escape". If we can´t lower her health enough during first time, she will siphon again and glow, then stop attacking. When she can be hit again, put everything you can into damaging her ( ultimate abilities, tresholds). The point is to get her health to 80k fast so the minion can be killed and next phase started.
Actually, Nex isn´t hard and is lots of fun when you get hang of it
Don´t hesitate to pm me if you have any questions.

Bump!
Event tomorrow
If it´s your first time: please make sure you have watched or read a Nex guide before the event so you know basics at least theoretically
Also if you have questions (about armour etc), please ask before the event, it would be difficult for me to explain everything during the kills.
